Happy New Year 2011!
Another year has come and gone and I’m once again thanking God for His goodness. As with any year, there were joys and sorrows, laughter and tears but God has been faithful and I praise Him for that faithfulness.
As I reflect over the year, I see at least some of the times I failed. I didn’t always handle things well as I would complain to God about my “lot” in life. However, this year I truly want to grow closer to Him. In asking that, I realize I may be asking for ever-increasing trials but I know that if I truly draw near to Him, He will help me get through them and I will be better able to help others.
I don’t know what 2011 will bring but I know there will be a grace for whatever comes. As I look to God, I trust Him to guide me in the way I should go and I pray that He will give me His heart of mercy and compassion for others.
In closing, let me wish each of you a very blessed 2011. May this year bring you joy and laughter, health and happiness. And may God’s grace sustain you through each trial you encounter.
